A pipette is more accurate. It can easily deliver one drop at a time.
Pipette can hold a small amount of liquid but a graduate cylinder can hold more and its good for accuracy.
The pipette, as it can be used to dispense microliters [liters * 10 to the power of -6] .
Graduated pipettes are not as accurate as volumetric pipettes, because each graduation line is not individually calibrated, and any imperfection in the internal diameter will have a greater effect on the volume delivered. In volumetric pipettes, the diameter of the pipette where the graduation mark is located is significantly smaller because the majority of its volume is located in the bulb.
A Volumetric Pipette is the most accurate and used for titration calculations, if you include that as a type of pipette then it is FAR more accurate than a graduated cylinder. A beaker is very inaccurate so don't even go there.
Because the smaller the cylinder the more accurate the measurement.

A beaker can be a graduated cylinder, so there is no real answer to this.A beaker can be a graduated cylinder, so there is no real answer to this.
Precision describes the repeatability of results, i.e. whether you get the same answer each time you measure something. Used correctly, there is no reason why a measuring cylinder would be the more precise. The exception is if you are using an inappropriate size of pipette, as it's difficult to be precise near the bottom of its range. Too large a measuring cylinder could also be imprecise.
A pipette, Autopipette, burette, a graduated cylinder for more than 1ml. etc
It depends on the amount you want to take. If it is microlitres, you can use a micropipette, millilitres, a pipette (a burette would be more accurate), and if greater than that, it is best to use a large graduated cylinder. A graduated cylinder is more inaccurate than a pipette, but at volumes of 500ml for example, it is impractical to use a pipette.
Theoretically a graduated cylinder...but if the only graduate I've got holds five liters with graduations 100 ml apart and I'm trying to measure to the milliliter, the pipette would be more accurate.

A graduated cylinder is utilized to get a more precise measurement of the volume of a liquid. They're also known as measuring cylinders.
The graduated cylinder is used to measure liquid volume. These cylinders are said to be more precise and accurate over beakers and flasks.

In volumetric pipettes, the diameter of the pipette where the graduation mark is located is significantly smaller because the majority of its volume is located in the bulb.
Depending on how accurate you want to be you can use a variety of methods. Common methods include the following (with increasing level of accuracy) 1) graduated cylinder 2) volumetric pipette. 3) Calibrated micro-pipette (may require more than one transfer)
